Jericho II

A duel for two players, or one against the computer. The screen is split into two halves, each holding a player's brick wall inside that player's own ring of track, which carries two shields on opposite sides. Turn your ring to keep the balls in your half: every ball that touches a brick of your wall knocks it and shakes a few more loose at random. A ball that slips through a gap in your ring, at the top, the bottom or the middle, flies into your opponent's half and works for them instead. Fallen bricks score steadily for their player. Each new wall takes more hits per brick, and more balls come into play as the levels rise. The first to bring their wall down five times wins.

Controls: Joystick only. Push up or right to turn your ring clockwise, down or left to turn it counter-clockwise. Controller 1 plays the left half and controller 2 the right; with one player, either controller plays the left half. On the title, push up and down to choose and press a button to start.
